. northern virginia. >> just a few. >> prince william or loudoun county. >> i was reciting the statistic that obama won 77% of counties with the whole foods market and only 29% of counties with the cracker barrel or old country store to a group of democratic young professionals. a young woman raised her hand and asked, did you mean crate and barrel? i've never heard of a cracker barrel. there's a cultural divide, a bubble mentality plaguing both parties. they live in alternate universes. it didn't always used to be this way. 1992 when bill clinton unseated george h.w. bush, these same counties, won 60% with the whole foods market. 40% with cracker barrel. so that was a 20-point gap. it's a 48-point gap now. >> there are some older votes, maybe the old fdr coalition that have shifted to the republican party. the democratic coalition of younger voters, hispanics, african-american, is just growing in size. >> if you had to pick a couple of counties that would epitomize that shift, you look at ohio and the white working class counties along the ohio river, coal country, belmont county, ohio,

william cohen in new york, a columnist for the bloomberg view, and clarence page, a columnist for "the chicago tribune." welcome to both of you. clarence, one thing this makes plain is democrats are feeling confident in a fiscal cliff win. why not ask for more? >> well, they're certainly asking for more than president obama is asking, and that is the point here. they feel that the policies of the clinton era that gave us the prosperity that we saw back then would be good to impose now. they are really calling for a different kind of arrangement pushing for a simplification of the tax code that would include taxes on cigarettes and alcoholic beverages which would cross income lines, those kind of consumer taxes hit lower income tax people -- taxpayers as well as upper, and they want to get rid of the amt, that automatic tax that's designed to make sure that older -- rather, the higher income earners will pay some minimum tax, automatically a minute tax. they have some additional taxes. they want to get rid of capital gains tax that benefitted mitt romney. it's a different arrangement bu

' lady ] live the regular life. phillips'. >>> in lub done prince william returned to the london hospital where his pregnant wife catherine has been receiving treatment. a cruel hoax played today when two australian talk show hosts pretended to be queen elizabeth and prince philip and got kate's private duty nurse on the line. >> when is a good time to come and visit her because i'm the queen and i need a lift down there. >> um -- >> mommy -- >> wait, charles, when can you take me to the hospital, charles? >> when will it be all right to come down and see her, maybe in the morning or something if that's okay? >> i would suggest any time after 9:00 would be suitable because the doctor will be in in the morning and we'll just be getting her freshened up in the morning. i would think any time after 9:00. >> the head of the hospital has now responded saying that the prank call was a pretty poor trick to play. indeed. he also said the hospital nurses are professionals who should not have to deal with, quote, journalistic trickery. unbelievable. >>> half a dozen u.s. senators are calling on the

's eve. >>> britain now begins a royal baby watch. but the more immediate concern for prince william and his wife, the duchess of cambridge, is her health. she will be in the hospital for a few days dealing with an acute case of morning sickness. i still know her as kate middleton. >>> could you imagine black friday lines to get your child into a school. this was last friday at a school in south carolina. parents nearly trampling each other to be first in line. the parents camped out for three days before they could actually register their child for this school. >>> it's cory booker's food stamp challenge helpful or a pointless exercise? your responses to our talk back question today. yep. the longer you stay with us, the more you save. and when you switch from another company to us, we even reward you for the time you spent there. genius. yeah, genius. you guys must have your own loyalty program, right? well, we have something. show her, tom. huh? you should see november! oh, yeah? giving you more. now that's progressive. call or click today. [ ding! ] ...and get longer nighttime co

of the not the lottery story but seeing the brian williams it was, like, the second story was the lottery story, which i don't know. this is not the same, but it's probably incumbent upon us to at least reference it that they're going to have a baby, might be twins, she was so dehydrated she needed to be hospitalized, they wouldn't have told us because you wait 12 weeks to tell us and supposedly the queen didn't know until yesterday. the guy or girl -- she would be become queen if she were a girl, king he'd be third in line. prince harry gets pushed back. >> do you really care who gets pushed back? who wants it? >> charles wanted it. he's 64 and the queen is 86 and her mother went to well over 100. >> yeah. >> charles is, like, 64 he's, like, you know, this is, you know -- >> never. >> and then next would be i guess william, but prince charles might not get it until he's, you know, he could be 80 years old before he finally gets it. and it -- there's a reason i guess this is kind of interesting. we love watching the royals. has shown me what it meant to be a person of privilege and rank in the old style

this special dividend club. here's a couple i've seen bandied about this morning. william sonoma for one. home depot another one i heard bandied around. office max another one and even p petsmart i heard bandied around as special dividend candidate. about the knight capital deal and getco offer of 3.50. they asked if knight could survive as stand alone company at this point. it's not clear. the board as changed. there are new people on the board that represent various interests. there are people on the board that are maybe likely motivated to sell. who knows. former managing director of general atlantic is on the board. it's complicated. i've asked if other bidders might emerge out there. think about this. only two bidders mentioned are not publicly traded. i don't think that's an accident. not an accident on the big publicly traded companies having come in at this point. a company with a lot of losses. risk out there. litigation risk out there. risk to the company overall. might be difficult to get that through a publicly traded company. i think that's an issue on why you haven't seen differe

video of all time. and the album? we'll let karyn wynter count the grammys. >> 1982, prince william was just a baby, michael jackson released "thriller." still the best-selling album in the world. >> it didn't matter if you were asian, black, hispanic, white. we all knew "thriller." >> i lived in haiti for a short time when i was a young kid and used to take that boom box out and play it for some of the local kids. as soon as i pressed play, they would start doing back flips. >> it didn't matter if you had a huge punk collection, huge r & b collection or frank sinatra was your favorite singer. for some reason you owned "thriller." >> although videos like billee jean," they were reluctant to put his music into rotation. >> "beat it" and the president of epic records says, you don't get any other videos unless you play michael jackson. so it was sort of a smart threat at the time. they went and played it. of course, the response was staggering. >> michael jackson became the first african-american added to what was then an all-rock lineup on mtv. "thriller" broke new ground with a hybr

develops. >> tomorrow on rock center tim cook is going to do his first tv interview with brian williams. do you think that he has the confidence of the market as ceo? >> that's a great question. listen, tim has some amazing attributes on what he's done on the supply chain is genius. is that the same as product genius and marketing genius that steve jobs had? we'll have to evaluate that over the next year. he has taken apple to be the largest listed market capitalization company on any u.s. exchange. now we'll see what he can do over the next 12 months or 14 months to find new markets and to continue growth. >> all right. colin, thank you for phoning in. >> euro retreating from a seven-week high against the dollar on poor demand for spanish bond auction today and indeed it must be said weaker than eurozone retail sales figures. andy, welcome. where does the euro go from here? >> hi, simon. there's a couple things that make me worried about the euro today. we made a higher high and are making a lower close. as we get into this week, we have only one more week before things turn over as far as
